ok ppl i was driving to a m88s place 2day nd when i went to change gear it wouldnt go back into gear like not into any gear. so i pulled over switched her off put it in 2nd nd started her up, so i did a uturn to go back home only sitting in 2nd nd i got bout 3 kms down the road nd i had to stop. i had the clutch right in nd still stoled it so i was stuck at the lights nd could not get her going again so i pushed it across to the side nd called the towie. when i got home i tried starting her up again i only started in natural (obviously) nd when trying to start it when it was in gear wif clutch in it jumped like it didnt have the clutch in. so is the clutch gooone or i have been told the clutch proply just needs adjusting. wat to u guys think it is? nd cos i have my daily off the road aswell i em wif out a car :thumbdwn:


sorry 4got to add its a d series eg civic

Sounds like a blown clutch. Have you noticed a change in the frixtion point or any slipping?

My clutch blew randomly while driving - the clutch plate got dislodged and snapped these little metal 'rod' things that hold it in place.

everything you describe makes me think your clutch is screwed

+1.

Crunching CAN be attributed to a gone clutch (as well as many other things)
